- Gmail Integrates Google's PDF Viewer - If you're using Gmail, and you should be, you no longer need an external PDF Viewer for viewing attached PDF documents, now Gmail has its own.
- Google Chrome 1.0 Released - If you were waiting for the Google Chrome to be out of beta before you gave it a try, the time is now. Google has removed the beta label.
- Gmail SMS - Send SMS messages from chat in Gmail (You are using Gmail aren't you?) Replies will appear in a chat Window.
- Export a Gmail message to Google Docs - Here's my favorite (sorry, it's Gmail again) -- you can now convert any email diretly into a Google word processing doc that can be easily modified. Imagine the possibilities
- No Jobs means no Macworld splash – Not only is Steve “the life of the party” Jobs not going to give the keynote speech at the SF MacWorld in SF next month, this is the last year Apple will attend. Smart move, these things are expensive.
- Rumor: New Mac Mini Coming to Macworld 2009 - MacWorld's means new Apple product releases. Probably not going to be laptops or iPods, they've been announced recently. One guess is that Apple is going to update the low-end Mac Mini.
- David Allen's Making It All Work a New Look at GTD - Mister "Getting Things Done" (he literally wrote the book on it) David Allen has a new book about how to be a better self-manager.
- The High Price of Cheap Eats - A nutritional review of five "value" meals from the top fast food restaurants -- "Jack in the Box’s junior bacon cheeseburger topped the list as the worst offender. The burger costs just one dollar but is packed with 23 grams of fat, including 8 grams of saturated fat, 55 milligrams of cholesterol and 860 milligrams of sodium and just one gram of fiber."

I could try and justify my incursion into politics on this website because Obama is going to be good for Tech or because Obama ran such a successful Internet campaign that it will be studied for future elections.
Actually it’s because, at my advanced age, I finally got to vote for someone because I wanted them to president, not because they were “at least better than their opponent.”

Celebrating a success is always fun. If you try and write everyday on one of the technology-blogs things, sometimes you walk away feeling really good. Feeling like you hit a homerun. You look at that entry the next day with a feeling of pride and your chest puffs.
Write often enough and you’ll do the other kind, too. Those are the posts that you hope to goodness no one comments on. When you happen to flash through it on your site you feel embarrassment and pain. How did I ever write that? Why did I bother? Why did I ever think anyone would care? Could I be more pompous? How did I get sucked in?
Today let’s highlight two of our worst posts from Enquiring Mimes for October and one (dis)honorable mention. Monday we’ll celebrate victories.
